Piano music (Sheet music)

October 22, 2011 Posted by Pete McDonald

 

Welcome to the sheet music area of my website. The current available songs are listed below. Feel free to listen to and download and try any of the songs. Note that whilst, for some songs, the whole song is available for you to download, print and try, if you intend to use it for any length of time other than a "trial", please purchase it via the links below. Other songs have just a few sample pages.

All purchases are through Paypal, and are email delivery, so may take 24-48 hours to be processed and sent.

Please note, as expressed on the each page of the sheet music, I don't give my permission for you to use them in exam situations unless they have been purchased! Thanks for supporting local music & musicians! We need to eat too! :)

The Flood
Added Mar 19, 2011
Length: approx 3:58'
$5.50
PDF, p1&2 Sample Performance A fast, in-your-face, "uplifting"-style piece. It has it's showy elements (with the left hand crossing over the right hand in several places). The bridge can be replaced by an improvised section if the student/teacher feels the desire. Those with a grand piano can use the middle 'sostenuto' pedal at several places to fill out the piece more.

Monni Mourns
Added Mar 19, 2011
Length: approx 3:53'
$4.50
PDF, p1&2 Sample Performance A longer, slowly building piece, good for somebody with a good range of musical expression. The middle and final sections can be tricky, and the sample performance below doesn't really reflect the 'rubato' style you can add to the piece!
HSC Music 2: Not recommended, but if required, Music of the last 25 years (mandatory) - Australian Focus, Australian Music.
HSC Music 1: Australian Music, Music of the 20th & 21st Centuries, An Instrument and it's repertoire.
AMEB: Around grade 4-6

Tarlia's Troubles
Added Mar 19, 2011
Length: approx 1:22'
$2.50
PDF, p1 Sample Performance A short bluesy / gospel piece, suitable for around grade 1/2 piano. Would suit a student with a good solid sense of rhythm, and shouldn't be played too fast!
HSC Music 2: Don't. No, really - don't. Even if you only started piano in Y11, and haven't practiced once, don't.
HSC Music 1: See above.
AMEB: Around grade 1-2
